Overview

Join us for a Grand Cayman Summer Adventure to Sunset House, with Charles & Amy Alarez as your trip leaders.  This is a perfect get-away for Summer.  There is lots of great diving, beautiful relaxing setting, simple accommodations, unlimited beach diving, with tons of other fun things to do on island.

Your trip leaders will be happy to share the underwater experience with topside adventures from start to finish.  We will even start the day of arrival with a quick beach check-dive, so we are ready for the rest of the week.  Oceanic Ventures guests have several specials with this package only: including a 3 tank safari day, a dive to the famous wreck of the Kittiwake, beach night dives on one of Ann’s favorite beach night diving spots and free nitrox!!! Maybe even do some shopping while you are there or maybe just a ton of diving!!!  The hotel will arrange for a shared fee-transfer each night to a local restaurant for the group if you want to join them so no rental car or taxi’s needed.

There is amazing shore diving from the Sunset House beach as well as very good night diving and night snorkeling!!  The Mermaid, Amphitrite a 9 foot bronze statue resides right offshore of the resort.  There is a protected ocean pool entrance from the shore.

All moneys are due in full on deposit even if not paid in full and some penalties may ably for cancellations based on the operators policies and group penalties.  As with most small island properties and vessels, cancellations are more of an issue so they have limited ability to fill unused spaces.  We highly recommend trip insurance to help avoid any unnecessary problems and should be purchased within 14 das of the initial deposit to receive the most benefit.  No refunds for missed flights or changes in plans.
